The news that the eldest son of the Xiao family was kidnapped from Zuihuayuan spread throughout Baima Town overnight.

Although the only witness, Miss Ningxiang, did not know who Xia Sheng was, only half an hour later, Xiao Zhen had ordered the garrison troops to block the entire Wanfu Tower.

At the same time, Xiao Zhen led several followers to Changliu Lane. Unfortunately, he found nothing except a pool of dark blood deposited and gold, silver and jewelry scattered all over the ground.

Until this time, Xiao Zhen finally understood that things were completely out of control.

But he still did not lose his last reason, nor did he ask the people in the garrison to rush into Wanfu Tower with thunder. Instead, he condescended to secretly negotiate with Wang Yuanshan, the shopkeeper of Wanfu Tower.

In the end, the answer he got was that Xia Sheng was not in Wanfu Building.

That night, the two gates of Baima Town were closed at the same time. The garrison troops searched the town all night, but still did not find any shadow of Xia Sheng.

It was not until the sky gradually became bright and the sun was rising that Xiao Zhen returned to the mayor's mansion and sat down on the bench with some fatigue.

At the same time, a middle-aged man in gray also handed him a cup of hot tea in time and sighed softly.

"Maybe, he escaped from the city as soon as possible."

This person was Xiao Zhen’s most trusted strategist, named Ning Zheng. At the beginning, it was him who inferred that through Miss Ningxiang’s description of the murderer and the accident that happened in Wanfulou tonight, Xia Sheng was the one who abducted Xiao Yong.

Xiao Zhen took a sip of tea, rubbed his eyebrows, and asked, "Has the arrest document been issued?"

Ning Zheng nodded: "It was sent out early in the morning. Even if he escaped from Baima Town, he might not be able to run far. He should be arrested soon."

Xiao Zhen shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether he can catch Xia Sheng, the key is to find Yong'er!"

Ning Zheng immediately comforted: "According to the description of the entire murder process by Miss Ningxiang, Xia Sheng did not choose to hurt the eldest son's life as soon as possible, but just punched him a few times. From this point of view, the eldest son may be injured, but at least his life is safe."

Xiao Zhen's face was full of fierceness: "It's better to do this, otherwise, I must make the little mistress of the Xia family worse than death!"

Ning Zheng continued to analyze: "The key now is why Xia Sheng did this? It has been a while since your conflict with him in Wanfu Tower. Since then, he has never taken the initiative to tease you. Why did he suddenly take such a heavy hand this time?"

Xiao Zhen's brows frowned into a lump and said, "I went to Changliu Alley to see. Xiao Si disappeared. There were large pieces of blood on the scene and two broken fingers. I think this is probably the work of that beast."

Ning Zheng said in a deep voice: "You mean, Xia Sheng is interfering in the Qin family?"

Xiao Zhen shook his head: "I can't be sure, but my intuition tells me that this is the only possibility."

Ning Zheng was silent for a moment and said suspiciously again: "Speaking of this, the matter between the Qin family is still full of doubts. Sir, have you found out what are the two people who broke into the mansion that night?"

When Xiao Zhen heard Ning Zheng mention this, he couldn't help but feel a little scared and said in a deep voice: "I ask my senior brother to investigate, but there is no news from Luoyang yet."

Ning Zheng continued: "With those two people's strength, it would be easy to attack the eldest daughter of the Qin family, but we have to let our people secretly apply medicine. Moreover, it is a pill of toxicity like Requiem. No matter how you look at it, this matter is a bit strange."

Xiao Zhen waved his hand: "Now is not the time to talk about this. It's the most urgent thing to find Yong'er. Is there any other way?"

Ning Zheng sighed and said, "This Xia Sheng is a filial son. According to my opinion, we could have taken his father back. Even if we can't ask anything, we can still take it as a hostage, so that Xia Sheng dared not easily kill the eldest son. But I heard that Xia Hong has disappeared since yesterday. In this way, the only bargaining chip in our hands is gone."

Xiao Zhen sighed, "Then I can only wait for the current plan?"

Ning Zheng nodded: "Wait. Since Xia Sheng kidnapped the eldest son, he did not hurt the eldest son's life. I think there is a condition to talk to us. Then, let me talk to him."

"good!"

As soon as Xiao Zhen finished speaking, he saw a side general of the garrison army running in quickly and shouted: "Sir! Sir! Young Master Xiao, Young Master..."

Xiao Zhen immediately stood up from the chair and said sternly: "Is there any news about Yong'er?"

That turned around and pointed out the door, and finally breathed evenly and finished speaking the rest.

"Just outside the mansion!"

"What!" Xiao Zhen's eyes narrowed, then his body flashed sharply and rushed out of the door.

The next moment, Xiao Zhen finally saw his son outside the gate of the mayor's mansion, but in fact, if it weren't for Xiao Yong's clothing and sword, Xiao Zhen would probably not have recognized who this person was.

At this time, Xiao Yong had obviously only had the last half of his breath. His handsome face had long been smashed by Xia Sheng with a pair of flesh fists. In addition, several blood holes were poked on his chest with a sharp sword, and he could vaguely see the broken ribs and dark red organs inside.

But what is surprising is that Xiao Yong still has the last trace of his mind. Although he can't say anything, he can't even move his little finger, and can only lie in a pool of blood like a broken rotten corpse, the will to survive that erupted from his eyes moved the audience.

Dozens of garrison soldiers firmly surrounded them in the middle, but none of them dared to step forward, not because they were afraid of taking rash actions to hurt the eldest son's life, but because there was still a person standing beside Xiao Yong.

Success.

Everyone searched for Xia Sheng, who had not been found for a night, and appeared in front of Xiao Zhen in a noble place with Xiao Yong, who was seriously injured and about to die.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhen was furious, his eyes were scarlet, and the bright orange martial arts in his body soared into the sky. He came step by step before everyone, stared at Xia Sheng tightly, and said in a cold voice: "Let him go!"

Xia Sheng's eyes seemed very calm, as if he turned a blind eye to the pressure that was scattered by Xiao Zhen. He shook his head and said quietly: "When I was in Wanfu Building a few days ago, I wanted to slaughter your Xiao Mansion. Unfortunately, I was not strong at that time. I thought you would learn from this lesson, but I never thought that I had made the biggest mistake in my life."

Xiao Zhen slowly clasped the long sword around his waist and sneered: "Do you think this is still Wanfu Tower? There is no help from Mr. Kang today. I really want to see what kind of ability do you, a small martial artist, have to dare to slaughter my Xiao Mansion!"

Xia Sheng shook his head and sighed: "First realm of Martial Arts? Sorry, I'm not anymore..."

After the words came to Xia Sheng's body, a seemingly thin halo quietly floated, like a long cloak, setting off his temperament incredibly gentle.

But the apricot yellow light, which was like the scorching sun, made everyone present feel particularly dazzling.

General Realm!
